    $219..........................You gotta be kiddin'

    I think what I'll do is ask the shop to hold the RD20 until tuesday when the one with the pickup comes in and I'll take one of the two. when/if I need a pickup, I'll have Matt at Maple Street guitar throw one in. Becca and I already picked out about a half dozen tunes and I banged 'em out best...

    $219..........................You gotta be kiddin'

    Okay, so I ordered the RD20sc, with the electronics, it should be in tuesday. They made it clear if I don't like it, no problems, it just becomes stock. Now here's my issue......I found an RD20sc at another shop (let's call it shop "B") and I didn't like it nearly as much as the RD20s at shop...

    $219..........................You gotta be kiddin'

    I changed my mind about getting an Electric guitar and decided an acoustic would serve me better. So I'm looking through a bucnh of guitars, trying a few with 5 or 6 hundred dollar price tags, ya know, kinda middle of the road stuff. Nothing really charges me up. I pulled down a Dreadnought...

    Fat Strat: MIM, USA, HWY1

    That sounds like the best advice to me, seems so obvious now :rolleyes: So I'm off to the music store to embarass myself out loud as I chunk out all three of the chords I know on as many axes as they have in my price range and a few high end instruments to see how an expensive guitar compares...

    Fat Strat: MIM, USA, HWY1

    What are the real differences that a novice player would notice? Feel of the neck? Weight of the body? Sound/tonal quality? Length of sustain? Residual value? I've pretty much decided I want a Fat Strat, but can't decide if I should get a new MIM or a used USA. I'd rather have a new...

    Need small amp with great tone for recording

    Check out the Amps built by Thatupstateguy. If you need a recommendation PM Treeline he bought one. They are low wattage (and I hope I get this right) class A point to point hand wired tube amps. I think he sets you up with two sets of tubes, for various tones. I don't know much about amps...

    Who can help me get started with triggering acoustic drums?

    demoed a DTXpress yesterday, liked the sounds of the drums, did not like the feel of the pads or sound of cymbals. I don't think I'll ever want to play electronic pads, but now I want to learn about triggering. I'm guessing I'd still use overhead mics to capture cymbals. Do I need a module or...

    A song about my father's passing

    SuperCreep..............That's the best compliment anyone could give to this song. Thank you. It took me several weeks of just listening and becoming immune to the emotions before I could actually work with it. Megaman............Thanks for the listen and comments. The BGvox levels we're...

    Need Advice! Please Comment The Mix!

    I've shut the studio down for the night and listening to the remix in my office would not be fair. I'll be happy to check it some time tomorrow or Sunday.

    A song about my father's passing

    Thanks for checking it out Tim. I'll run it again through my RTA and see if I can find that low -mid hump. On a storm swept moonless night The wind came with a chill Although the breeze was blowing The air was deadly still. Our cries were in the distance They could hear them through the...

    Need Advice! Please Comment The Mix!

    First off I'd lose the part of that liturgical piece at the begining. There's a muddy build up in the mids. I like the voices, but they should be much clearer. Start with the drums, get them nice and clean then add the layers. If you have a RTA(Voxengo has a freebie that'll suffice) run...

    A song about my father's passing

    This was a collaboration from another site that was centered on a lyric I wrote about the events surrounding my father's death. Many thanks and Kudos to Scrubs for writing the music and performing the lead vox bass and guitars. The Song is Still Cold Blowing Breeze

    What would you use $300 for?

    Plenty of charity already in the budget, this was "found" money, payback from a forgotten debtor. We run a socially conscious business and help support several organizations, I'm not going to feel guilty about doing something for myself (actually it's building our future business division so we...

    Help on buying headphones

    http://www.itrstudio.com/moreme.html They do the job, and Harvey backs 'em up. I have five pair, I did have to return one pair after a month or two and the replacements shipped out as soon as he got my e-mail, I had my new ones even before he got the broken ones back.

    What would you use $300 for?

    I've got about three hundred right now to drop into my studio but don't know where to put it. A used AT4050? Matched pair of MXL 603s? Waves Power Pack V5? Lava Lamp collection? Soft-Synth (pick one for me please)? Acoustic room treatments? As of now I have an 18 x 22 room with a few weird...
